Remember the post I made about "No More Tractors". I wonder what gasoline will cost if we move the majority of our vehicles to CNG? I would imagine it will be much more expensive if it is not produced in mass volumes as it is now. I don't mean to sound alarmist, but it is a little diconcerting. I hope the day never comes that we aren't allowed to run old tractors, or can't afford to, but boy, it sure seems like we might be headed in that direction one day.

And as far as T. Boone, I'm far from convinced that he has our best interests at heart. I still believe we have more than enough oil here in North America to run on for at least a hundred years, and by then we will have moved in another direction by natural market forces, hopefully toward Jetsons type flying vehicles.

I also don't believe in man-made global warming, so that is not even a consideration for me in this issue. It's unfortunate that so many are buying into it. A major move in any other direction for our fuel needs will be extrodinary expensive for the country, needlessly so. There has been a great deal of news lately about a lack of sunspot activity, pointing toward another big cooling period. The last time there was this little activity on the sun was during the Little Ice Age.

I'm afraid we will begin making changes that are pointless, fruitless, expensive, and unnecessary.

Additionally, I don't think God put us here with the end plan being that we ruin the planet.

Just my $0.02 worth, and I'm not very smart.

Brian

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on ... [Read Article]
